Awkward Moment

The new "hip" thing to say in a Facebook status update. Wildly used out of context by students and young English people in an attempt to stand out from all the everyday statuses that appear on the proverbial news feed.
CORRECT example. "That awkward moment when you're facing an old flame/work colleague on a train/bus and attempting to avoid eye contact."

WRONG example. "That awkward moment when you realize you've woken up late for a lecture"

That's not awkward, that's just laziness.

Awksome

Simultaneously both awkward and awesome; being perfectly comfortable with yourself while also being uncomfortable. Also relates to situations.
Jenner, Lizzie, and Amber were always so nervous on first dates that they drank themselves into a stupor, though it made things uncomfortable and at times resulted in "fail," they all loved the stories they could share from the amazing nights that they had and basked in being mutually awksome friends.

Awkward Brick

A situation that reaches extremely high levels of uncomfortableness and perplexity. It is when it is so awkward, you won't talk to the other people for the rest of your life. It is as if a giant brick of awkward fell from the sky and landed in the room, smashing all other emotions.
"Son, were getting a divorce."

Awkward friendship

A friendship that feels awkward, especially after being dumped by your significant other.

Usually a friendship that you won't keep after being dumped by your girlfriend/boyfriend.
Guy 1: You got dumped by that hot chick you really like? Are you still friends with her?

Guy 2: Ehhhh, I am, but, it's real awkward. Now, she can have a relationship with any guy she wants, and not feel guilty about talking to me about it. I may as well dump her as a friend. What I have with her is an awkward friendship.
